Consoles player base are destroyed by crossplatform with PC

Bought the game last week and tried to play but theres only 1 server with around 10 players and 100 AI. Later, just enabled crossplatform and found some servers but its pretty bad play against player...

mouse and keyboard is a advantage in my opinion, BUT The biggest problem is when you face PC players, you face a TON of cheaters and that makes it even worse.

dont worry the PC player base kills itself with all the cheaters as well.

I have never played a FPS on console before ( online ), but I would never even try it if i was forced to play vs pc.

@DrunkwoIf Man, I haven't been playing recently but are there even actual cheaters? I deal with them in BFV (which is all I play at the moment) and they're obnoxious, but I've come across only 1-2 cheaters in my time playing 2042. Most are just very good players on PC who use mouse/keyboard to their advantage.

Yea i have not seen many cheaters either.
I remember reading an article about cheat websites refusing to make cheats for Battlefield 2042, because the code was to buggy lol.

  @Pantleon Ye, that was shortly after launch. I'm not sure how it's changed since then, I don't browse cheat providers, but I imagine there's still not a ton of interest in making/selling these cheats on PC given the fairly small potential customer base. Not really worth the effort unless their tools already bypass the version of EAC 2042 uses and they can get one working with minimal effort.

    There is a very clear disadvantage. But there is no solution for that. Especially now that you are forced to cross play.
    Unfortunately you cannot cross play from PS5 and Series X with other console versions.
    Try the PS4 version. It usually has a full server.
    Maybe they will fix the aim assist for good on the next patch.
